Ways to add to TaxonWorks using commonly used patterns.

In coding TaxonWorks there are a number of patterns that the basis for adding and maintaining features in or around TaxonWorks. Here are some:

• Add a new data model, from back end to (very) basic UI - See Scaffolding
• Add a new Task to the UI - See TaxonWorks task
• Write a script to add, alter, or report data - See Rake task
• Configure a radial menu - See Radial
• Add new help bubbles to the UI - See Help

While you code you will want to add and run tests to ensure you're not unintentionally breaking things, and to ensure others can refactor what you've done.
